League Of Pop: THE FINAL

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

OK, here's how this works:

1. Download this 25 Mb zipfile: http://www.sendspace.com/file/h96dqj

2. Listen to the tracks. Decide which you think are the two best ones.

3. Tomorrow I will post a poll and you can vote in it.

4. You can comment here or on the poll.

5. PLAYERS: Please do not reveal which track is yours!

Question: is 25Mb too much for a single download? I need to know for the Pop Open - if necessary I can cap the bitrates at 192 and keep the totals down that way.

Pop Open: 17 out of 41 tracks in - no single group filled as yet! Keep them coming!

Remind me again - the more people that know a track the less your chance to go through, correct? This means that winners will be judged on the total number of votes received? Or will there be some way to calculate a percentage of "eligible" voters? (For example: 48 Poptimists vote in Group X. Half of all Poptimists already know "La Isla Bonita" by Madonna, but three-fourths of the remaining Poptimists love the track. Relatively speaking that should be enough to go through, but on absolute numbers it might not be enough.)

Just trying to figure how risky it is to go with something that a reasonable number of people might know.

Yes, this is broadly right.

which bit?

are we doing simple first past the post or complicated number of votes out of number of people who didn't know it?

Oh, the general point about the more people who know something the less eligible voters for it there are.
